When the mem_access type needs to be changed for multiple discontiguous gfns, calling xc_hvm_set_mem_access() multiple times does not perform very well. The main pain points are the multiple libxc calls themselves plus the multiple map_domain_page() / unmap_domain_page() and ept_sync_domain() calls for each ept_set_entry(gfn). The following patches adds a new mem_access API that sets the mem_access type for an array of guest physical addresses in one libxc call with minimal map_domain_page() / unmap_domain_page() and ept_sync_domain() calls.

Split ept_set_entry() such that mapping and unmapping of the page tables and ept_sync occurrs outside of it.

Set the array of guest physical addresses to a specific mem_access type.
Allowed types are HVMMEM_access_default, HVMMEM_access_n, any combination of
HVM_access_ + (rwx), and HVM_access_rx2rw.
When a gfn cannot be set to the specified access, its respective field in
@err is set to the corresponding errno value.

Are you sure that your bulk code actually works? It seems to me that
your __ept_set_entry function assumes that table still points to the
top of the p2m. The "for ( i = ept_get_wl(d); i > target; i-- )" loop
will walk the table, and so in the subsequent calls from your bulk
loop, this won't work?
I think you need something like an iterator, the context of which can
be passed around...
Also, the call to ept_get_entry in your bulk loop will do a walk in
every iteration, it seems a bit arbitrary to only (try to) avoid one
and not the other. But I guess the "win" is from reducing the number
of ept_sync_domain calls.

Duh! You are right. My test code has been giving me a false positive.
I completely misread how ept_next_level() works.

You are right. I was mainly focusing on removing the multiple libxc
calls and reducing the ept_sync_domain calls. I thought removing the
map and unmap of the p2m top page was an extra optimization which I
obviously messed up. I will rework the patch to only stick with the
original optimization I had in mind.
Thanks,

Does this look correct now?

It addresses the issues I've pointed out, but:
- you should leave the ASSERT where it is, or is there a reason to move it?
- this is wrong:
> - old_entry = *ept_entry;
> + old_entry->epte = ept_entry->epte;
You should follow the code and see what uses old_entry and you'll see
that within the function old_entry->mfn is used (your diff changes the
line that uses it) and ept_free_entry also accesses mfn.
- are you sure you can move the ept_sync_domain call past the iommu code?
I made a similar change a while ago, though it is for a more specific
case, updating the ept table to "clean" the vram tracking. My change
is:
- clear needs_sync when setting the type to logdirty for a leaf entry
if ( !is_epte_present(ept_entry) ||
(!target && p2mt == p2m_ram_logdirty) )
needs_sync = 0;
- only call ept_free_entry in the non-leaf case
if ( target && is_epte_present(&old_entry) )
ept_free_entry(p2m, &old_entry, target);
- call ept_sync_domain from hap_clean_vram_tracking
Maybe you can do something similar, for example passing in a hint
whether ept_sync_domain needs to be done or not. In my case, the
reasoning is that all the entries changed from hap_clean_vram_tracking
are leaf entries, so ept_free_entry will never be called and thus
ept_sync_domain can be deferred. I didn't think through/consider the
iommu case since that code is commented out in my tree.

Ok, I will move the ASSERT back to where it was.

I thought about doing that initially. But then in the bulk case I would
always have to call ept_sync_domain() to be on the safe side. But if the
iommu case forces me down that path, then I guess I have no choice.

I'm afraid I won't be able to review this code until next week. This
change is already too late for the 4.2 freeze, though, so there's plenty
of time to get it right after we branch.
Cheers,
Tim.

I think you should re-consider. It would avoid adding the extra
wrapper, which makes this code a lot less readable. Plus it avoids
the need for the old_entries array.
Let me re-iterate:
- if it's a leaf entry, then there's no need to call ept_free_entry
- if you don't need to call ept_free_entry, then you can defer
ept_sync_domain (subject to the iommu case)
- you could pass in a pointer to a bool to indicate to the caller that
ept_sync_domain was deferred and that the caller needs to do it, with
a NULL pointer indicating that the caller doesn't support defer

I understand now and like this approach. I will rework the patch and
send it out.

Not a problem. This can wait for post 4.2. By then I would have
reworked it the way Christian was mentioning.

It's missing the "leaf entry" part of my description of how I think
things should work. Without that, you're effectively ignoring the
following comment at the end of ept_set_entry:
/* Release the old intermediate tables, if any. This has to be the
last thing we do, after the ept_sync_domain() and removal
from the iommu tables, so as to avoid a potential
use-after-free. */
See inline comments in your patch below for how I'd change this, untested...

This should be:
if ( !is_epte_present(ept_entry) ||
(!target && sync_deferred) ) {
needs_sync = 0;
if (sync_deferred)
*sync_deferred = 0;
}
This expresses the notion that we're going to skip the call to
ept_free_entry since it's a leaf entry (target == 0) and that the
caller will make the ept_sync_domain call (sync_deferred != NULL).

Then at the end of ept_set_pte add the test for non-leaf, which is
more like an optimization/clarification since ept_free_entry has the
same test already.
if ( target && is_epte_present(&old_entry) )
ept_free_entry(p2m, &old_entry, target);

Sorry for not following and thanks for your patience. Hopefully this looks
correct. I have just included the pertinent bit of the patch you were
commenting on.

Xen coding style has spaces inside those parentheses.

I don't think you should do this -- you call this function in a loop and
you may need to sync because of an earlier iteration. Better to only
write a 1 to *sync_deferred once you know there's a sync to be done, and
never to write a zero.
> + }
One comment on the rest of the patch: your calling function calls
ept_sync_domain() directly if sync_deferred == 1. That's correct for
now but it would be cleaner to use a sync() function pointer in the
struct p2m_domain, the same as the other implementation-specific calls.
Other than that, I think this looks pretty good to go in after 4.2 has
branched.
Cheers,
Tim.

You are right. I will fix that.

I can add that too.

OK, I will resubmit once 4.2 has branched.
